* I Can't Stay Here Tonight *
Open up your tired eyes,
And force yourself to smile
Yestersday was yesterday,
It's gone, it's tomorrow now
It's here, it's tomorrow now
Now I must go, but I'll see you again
When, oh please don't ask me when
I'll call, I'll write,
But I cannot stay here tonight
No, I cannot stay here tonight
I can't stay here tonight
Light me up a cigarette
And check that my bags are packed
Something I was gonna say
It's gone till another time
But how long till that other time
I hate to go, but I'll be back again
When, oh please don't ask me when
I'll call, I'll write,
But I cannot stay here tonight
No, I cannot stay here tonight
I can't stay here tonight
Open up your tired eyes,
And force yourself to smile
Yestersday was yesterday,
It's gone, it's tomorrow now
It's here, it's tomorrow now
Now I must go, but I'll be there again
When, oh please don't ask me when
I'll call, I'll write,
But I cannot stay here tonight
No, I cannot stay here tonight
I can't stay here tonight
Open up your tired eyes,
And force yourself to smile
Yestersday was yesterday,
It's gone, it's tomorrow now
It's here, it's tomorrow now
Now I must go, but I'll see you again
When, oh please don't ask me when
I'll call, I'll write,
But I cannot stay here tonight
No, I cannot stay here tonight
